i have a friend who is looking to possibly buy a 1950 dodge coronet with a flathead 6. neither of us really know much about them (or any cars that old for that matter), but its in good shape overall, is a pretty cool old car, and runs great. the guy is asking $3000 for it... which i think is a little steep (it does have some rust on the passenger floor side and a few other spots... no body rust though... and just some overall wear everywhere). the problem is, we are both college students and don't know how reliable something like this would be. i have my jeep to haul us around ofcourse (and we all know nothing will ever go wrong with it)... but would this vehicle be a worthwhile investment as a fun project car to work on and just mess around with if we could get it for a better price?
